Discover The Historic Viking Roots And Academic Charm Of Sigtuna And Uppsala On Tour


This full day excursion from Stockholm invites travelers to explore the rich heritage of two iconic Swedish cities. The journey begins in Sigtuna, recognized as Sweden's oldest town, where participants enjoy a guided walk through narrow streets lined with historic wooden buildings. Visitors learn about the town's Viking age origins and medieval significance while having ample time to browse local shops or enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of this charming lakeside destination before continuing the trip.


After the morning in Sigtuna, the tour proceeds to Uppsala, a city defined by its prestigious university and deep historical roots. The guided portion of the visit focuses on the city's most significant landmarks, including the towering Uppsala Cathedral, which serves as a centerpiece of Swedish ecclesiastical history. Guests gain insights into the academic and religious evolution of the region while walking through areas that have shaped the nation's cultural identity over many centuries.


The tour is designed with a gentle pace that balances structured historical storytelling with independent exploration. By allowing guests to wander through the quiet corners of Sigtuna or admire the architectural details of Uppsala at their own speed, the experience ensures a personal connection to the sites. This approach provides a comprehensive overview of Swedish history without feeling rushed, making it an ideal choice for those who appreciate both learning and leisure.


Concluding the day, the return trip to Stockholm offers a comfortable conclusion to an enriching cultural experience. By combining the Viking legacy of Sigtuna with the academic grandeur of Uppsala, the itinerary provides a well-rounded perspective on Sweden's past. Travelers leave with a deeper understanding of the architectural beauty and historical narratives that define these two essential cities, having enjoyed a seamless transition between guided discovery and personal time throughout the entire day.

We had a very enjoyable half day Viking history tour which incorporated visiting a former Viking farm, a causeway, a meeting place and Sigtura. Along the way we were introduced to runes that had helped to identify these places and learnt about the people that lived there. There were only four of us on the tour, so whilst it was a public tour, it felt very personal and our guide Olof, was very accommodating. For example, we chose not to stop for lunch so that we maximised our time in Sigtura. I would thoroughly recommend this tour. I had contemplated the 8 hour tour and part of me wished that I had chosen the longer tour, but I think this was actually a better choice as I ended wanting more. Whilst we were driving around, Olof also chatted a lot about Sweden in general and it was lovely to have those conversations with him. He also recommended we take the boat trip from Stockholm to Drottningholm Palace which we did the next day and enjoyed enormously.

Not only was our driver, Natalie, amazing, but so too was our guide Karin. Both women were personable, enthusiastic and so very gracious. Natalie’s driving was safe and she too offered so much insight into the history of Sweden. Then, Karin, was a wealth of information about Uppsala. The entire day was fabulous from start to finish!

An excellent educational day with Jakob! Just finished a full day tour with Swedish history tours. It was very interesting and informative day and we got to see a number of different sites, including Viking runestones and places where the Vikings gathered as well as burial mounds predating the Vikings. Jakob was an excellent guide and it was a great day.
